Ralf, I have been thinking about some issues to Castor JDO lately, and what I'd really like to see implemented is a factory object for the JDOManager. Right now, we have several (more or less complex) factory methods on JDOManager itself. Personally, I'd like to move (or support this in addition) to an additional JDOManagerFactory object to load JDO configuration and ask for creation of JDOManager instances.
A real benefit to me is that this would A) clearly separate responsibilities B) create something similar to the XMLContext object on the XMl side C) allow a much cleaner and lighter interface on the JDOManagerFactory object, potentially moving towards setters only. In other words, if you need an EntityResolver, set it; if not, not; etc. What's your view(s) ?
